Now I grow chives, continental parsley, basil and rosemary on my balcony. But, just between you and me, the rosemary’s not looking too good.

The pseudo-drug I took to stay happy
3 years ago
I ran out of the little herbal pills and spare cash over the holidays, so was more or less forced to, and am now feeling pretty happy. I took St Johns Wort for most of the last three years of university, and all of the first year of working. I found it helped me subdue and slow those anxious, depressive thoughts until I could figure out ways to manage them, but I probably should have talked to a doctor as well. You’ve got to look after yourselves, kids.
